Hello everyone on the Forum.

Block is from a 1976 C60 truck or bus.

Heads look like 882 casting 76cc smog heads.

Edlebrock performer intake and Holley 4bbl carb.

4L80 transmission, BM Quick Silver shifter.

Hope to learn a lot from the forum.

 

Thanks

Welcome!  Several of us are in the LA area.  Perhaps we should have an in-person meet, 'rona-permitting?

 

If you car doesn't presently run, and you're unsure of re-start procedures, it may help to post in the "general troubleshooting" sub-forum.  The usual culprits are of course fuel-air-spark, assuming that the valvetrain and so forth are healthy, and that the compression is OK.

 

4L80 is an unusual choice, to go behind a small-block.  Was the original intended for drag racing?
